WASN'T PREPARED TO CRY 😭💔 | Sousou No Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End Ep 1 & 2 REACTION/REVIEW! 

- Appears for like 10 mins tops - Somehow, manages to win everyone's hearts - Refuese to elaborate - FUCKING DIES Himmel, ladies and gentlemen

That close up on the meteor with Himmel looking on always gets me. 😢 I've seen it a couple times now, and I can't help but think how the meteor is like Himmel with his human life span. It burns out so quickly but while it lasts, it's so brilliant and beautiful. And the music, omg. So sad 😭

I have said this in a few people's reactions, but heiter was a long lived human even for our time, he lived to be 104. He was able to walk in his hundreds, which is astounding. Himmel lived to be around 70, and Eisens age is undetermined.

My friend who speaks a bit of Japanese told me something interesting. Just like English, Japanese has various expressions for saying goodbye, and one of them, taken literally, means "I'll be leaving first". This is the expression Heiter uses to say goodbye to Frieren as he climbs into the carriage after Himmel's funeral.

"I'm probably doing it for myself" is probably my favorite line in episode 2. It reminds me of a recurring phrase from one of my favorite webcomics: "I'm not doing it for you. I'm doing it for me, because of you." Yeah, it's partly for Himmel, but more than anything else it's her way of trying to understand her own feelings.

I like that you pay attention to the conversation where alot of reactors tend to miss important details. New Sub. ❤

You were making me tear up again even having seen these scenes so many times! You seem like a wonderful person! 🙂

outro plays "are you alright?" no! IM NOT ALRIGHT 🥲

"I'm gonna cry every episode" Welcome to Frieren. I cry at almost nothing and this show got me consistently.

The tip of the iceberg is an understatement with this anime

幼い頃のフェルンも、ハイターに教わった「蝶を出す魔法」が1番大好きで、それを笑顔で褒められた事をずっと覚えていました。 だからフェルンもフリーレンと同じく、自分の好きな魔法で大切な人達が笑ってくれた「馬鹿馬鹿しい理由」で魔法を選んだ。 フリーレンの一番好きな魔法は「お花畑を出す魔法」 この魔法がなぜ一番好きなものなのかは、これから分かると思います。

These first few episodes are important (for a preface) for the upcoming .. well, many eps lol as they are either within lots of meanings or actions or even gestures. The little callbacks and things you notice as things progress really make me smile when watching this show. It's a treat to watch. I enjoy re-watching episodes really just to enjoy how beautiful everything looks as well rather than locking in on everything else. I saw some people point out how amazing the shadow work is in this show. It's so pretty lol. Anyways, enough of me gushing. Glad you liked and you got me even a bit teary eyed in ep. 2 with the Himmel giving her a flower tiara, only for his statue to get one from her.

Thank you for sharing 😊. You were quite observant and made excellent deductions.

You have no idea what you've gotten yourself into, I've never cried so much during an anime as I did during this one, and I've been through 3000 Anime

This was a great reaction to watch. You pay attention to the dialogue and the little details, your reactions kind of mirror my own - I tend to get pretty emotional about these cute little details. I'm excited to see how you react to everything!

"They haven't aged as much as Himmel" probably shouldn't sleep with a cursed item in the cupboard next to your bed... But I'm no surgeon

The heroes party were full of powerful people but the real damage they can cause is the emotional kind. P.S Heiter was such a corrupt priest, the best kind (pours one out)

This anime has heart-wrenching drama, very funny comedy, exhilirating adventure, heart-pumping action, and its fight scenes are totally SOLID. Truly perfect!

Side note: They aren’t just any little random spells they’ll all make sense in due time, but that’s another time to discuss! Happy you are starting this Journey!!! Get ready for the tears and amazing scenes/moments 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Frieren keeps telling Fern they are the same, because they like magic not entirely due of itself, but also an external reason: Fern wanted to be able to take care of herself after Heiter passed away, and Frieren collects spells because Himmel complimented hers.

Episodes 1 & 2 of Frieren are brutal on the heart.

'didn't age as much' well, one is a dwarf and one did not grow up with a demonic horn in his living room. :)

27:04 "Those are kind of useless" It's a good joke at the time and a great bit of lore a little bit later

First bottle Frieren poured out on Heiter's headstone was the bottle she brought, the second was the bottle Heiter was holding when he stopped Fern from jumping. The exact moment he quit drinking.

I can't wait for your reactions to the next episodes! The show only gets better and better!

Ayyy nice IY sweatshirt! It's actually my headcanon is that this show is a fantasy IY au, specifically SessKag. Frieren = Sesshoumaru, Himmel = Kagome, Heiter = Miroku, Fern = Rin, Stark = Kohaku. As a SessKag + KohaRin fan it gets me in the feels so much 😭♥

my girlfriend has never been an anime enjoyer but she ended upnreally liking this show.

Welcome to the anime that will change your whole life's view 😢😮😮. LOVED THIS ANIME!

This is such a beautiful show! And your reaction shows extreme emotional intelligence! You seem like such a sweetheart 😇

Heiter really lived a long life. He's at least 90-something, and that's just assuming his age is similar to Himmel's. I feel that he might be a bit older.

You witness one of the best animes if its about fantasy and as topic "time". And im serious. One of the best. Everything, from Music till storytelling is PEAK. You beginning to love the charactere even you see 5 minutes of them. We, actually waited a long time to get finally this kind of Anime. Lifechanging. We need this Anime. i actually cant stop to watch other, watching frieren :D because we need to share the feelings what frieren trigger. Small funfact: few of the best animators in the whole anime industry are working on this animes

A lot of small things have callbacks that matter later, so it's good you notice details like that!

With opening episodes like these, there's no such thing as "too early to cry" or "I'm trying not to cry. Just... cry

I appreciate these reactions ❤

This show sets up Frieren's unusual perspective of the world so well. The world just moves in a blur around her.

I'm so glad to see that I wasn't the only one sobbing throughout this anime!! ;v;) absolutely love that you're paying attention to the important parts of the anime and you summarizing it pretty much hits the nail on the head before the next scene even happens. Subscribing ✨

Cute Lil elf ears ❤❤❤

Guys playing in flower fields is NOT gross, thank you very much.

"Obviously elves live for friggen ever compared to humans." Oh... Oh boy. You have *no* idea.

Time is a major player in this show, Humans typically live to about 80, Dwarves typically live to 300 but there are exceptions but Elves are near immortal. Frieren is (I estimate by her mana shown later) to be about 1500 years old at the start of the anime and she is considered to be fairly young as others are several times her age. The perception of the passage time by the characters is often at odds with each other especially when the entire lifespan of someone else would be equivelent to anywhere from days to a few months at most if put in the perspective of a human.

I love your reactions, you're so invested. Looking forward to watching more 😊

The names of the people and places are all German. Knowing them is a lot of added value because of symbolism. Frieren - (to feel) Cold/Freezing Himmel - Sky/Heaven Fern - Distant Heiter - Bright/cheerful Eisen - Iron Flamme - Flame / Passion Himmel imagery is very present. Frieren is commonly framed against Himmel, the sky. In this episode an important example of this imagery is that directly after finding the flowers, Frieren is framed against the beautiful sky... Himmel was with her when when she saw them.

You're in for a real treat with this show, can't wait for the next video

Yow, just ffind out u had frieren's reaction 👌👌 this anime was peak 😊

開始早々で涙目とかある?😅 などと言ってみたいが、人の心を持っているとそうなるし、無理すると胃腸が泣く。 この作品は、とにかく読者や視聴者の隙を狙い急襲するが、最初から感情移入してしまうのは、Bocchiの監督の力量と例のOST担当他、スタッフ全ての力と予算。 アニメ化の先のパートは少しだけ読んで、後は読まずに我慢しているが、見直すとほぼ全てが繋がっているし、リアクションのお姉さんがcute連発する通りで、決してシリアスが全てでない分、そこが却ってキツい。それにしても一体いくつfrierenのリアクション動画が有るのか知らないが、本当に優しい人達が多くて安心する

next time you all having fun being all happy and laughing while goin on a vacation thinking “it’s just a week or two”, remember those beloved pets of yours at home it’s probably already 10-20 years for them since you all been gone😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

Hello there. Just watched your reaction to the next episode, yeah that detail where she learnt a spell uniquely because Eisen likes them was... beautiful.

After watching the first episode i knew i was going to love it, (i ended up buying the manga too :D). for me the music sets the scene beautifully, people often over look the OST. i think you are going to absolutely love the rest of the show.

I'm guessing Amazon Lord of the Rings would not want to see how to make elves relatable and in their own way caring

Cute little town - kingdom's capital

Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Sousou no Frieren. I hope you really enjoy this anime series! Just a few things if no one else has mentioned it; this aniome is really about paying attention to little details, as small things make emotional impacts later in series. You DO learn why Frieren has a habit of collecting spells, and it all starts with her master, who is revealed in Episode 4 and you learn way more about her in the penultimate mid-season episode 10. Every name in Frieren is a German word and they have meaning. There is a school of thought that this whole story is Frieren's reminiscence, since people are named for concepts that encapsulates a memory/impression, rather than normal German names. Frieren - Freezing Himmel - Sky or Heaven - pay attention to the times they show the Sky, as it almost always refers to Himmel or the memory of him Heiter - Jolly - Heiter is shown in future flashbacks as deflecting difficult emotional stress with humour or self-deprecation. Eisen - Iron - a great name for one of the strongest warriors in history Fern - Remote or distant Stark - Strong Flamme - Flame - The founder of Human Magic, Frieren's human Master. Potentially named for the Promethean legend, the giant who taught the gift of fire to humans in Greek mythology, but also for setting Frieren on the path to thawing her heart. Qual - Torment Aura - Aura Lügner - Liar Linie - Line, as in production, watch the way she summons things Draht - Wire Graf Garnat - Count Garnet - the stone that is part of the family amulet is a red garnet. Kraft - Power, Strength Sein - Being or Existence Kanne - Container or pot Lawine - Avalanche Wirbel - Whirl or Vortex Übel - Evil or Villain Denken - Thinking Land - Country Richter - a reference to the founder of hte Richter Scale, the measure of earthquake intensity Laufen - Runner Ehre - Honor or Glory Scharf - Sharp Sense - Scythe Genau - Exactly or Precisely Falsch - Wrong or Mistaken Lernen - Learn Edel - Noble Blei - Lead the metal Dünste - Steamy or hazy Ton - Sound or Tone Länge - Length of time or duration Methode - Method Serie - Series, as in items in a group (a book series, for example) Frieren recently toppled FullMetal Alchemist from the top spot on MyAnimeList (MAL), where it had sat for more than a decade. Both are Shonen manga that have women mangakas, and both start with loss. Both are praised for it's excellent characterization, emotional intensity and touching sentimentalism. Lastly, the series is named "Sousou no Frieren." While this has been translated as "Frieren The Slayer" this is INCORRECT. "Sousou no" is the act "sending off" as in a funeral. Thus the more exact translation is "Frieren the Undertaker." This has more than one meaning, but the two most common interpretations is that we learn that Elves in Frieren are essentially immortal, so Frieren will eventually "send off" all her non-elven friends. The second meaning is to "see someone off" is also a euphemism for killing and is Frieren is first identified by a demon as the titular character.

The answer is yes, you will cry almost every time lol. Seriously though, I love the melancholy beauty of this story and how well they tell it. Definitely my anime of the year last year

New series!! Let’s go!!❤

The elves in this seem to be like Tolkien's and are properly ageless, the can die but they never age. There isn't even the call to the undying lands like in Middle Earth.

#AliAnimus, I have just subscribed to your channel, so this is my first time commenting on your videos.

10 years is a long time'' for a human, simple.

Dwarves also live a bit longer than Humans. Not as long as Elves, but Eisen will be around for a bit.

try not to cry challenge failed yet again =( beautiful reaction can't wait for more - subbed for sure

Time is told in the story as years after Himmel died since that's the perspective that Frieren would have.

If you pay close attention and they make a second season, you will eventually learn why Frieren wanted to learn each of those spells.

No spoilers, it's a long time. Your going to truly enjoy this anime

This anime is second only to the Pixar's "Up" when it comes to fastest tears by the viewer. And to your question about anime food: According to legend, it's because of the most horrific example of poorly drawn food in history. The infamous "Cabbage Sphere" in the anime "Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na" otherwise known as "Cresent Love". Supposedly the cabbage sphere incident was so embarrassing it changed food animation in Japan forever. There is a wikipedia article about it you can look up if you think Im lying.

Hi new sub here, have you already done a room/setup tour? You've got a dope arcade mini cabinet and RGB lighting and other stuff behind you. Would be cool to see

Oh dang I've seen this show is getting popular recently.🎉

Fake Hero, Corrupt Priest, Cowardly Warrior, and Lazy Mage. They should have lost, but didn't. Everyone defied the definition in someway. Himmel fail to pull the sword, but inspired everyone he met or who heard of him to do better. Heiter was a constant drunk, but his true faith inspired it in everyone he met. Eisen was afraid of any strong enemy he fought, but never fled and was never defeated. Frieren well, we know Frieren's failings. The more the story goes along though the more we come to understand they all lived up to the rep. Himmel is the Hero. Eisen is the warrior. And Heiter and Frieren's influence extends far beyond what they could have expected.

Beware, more tears ahead. 😢

Prepare your tissues for next episodes, i cry during almost every episode 😅

Welcome to Frieren.

"Is this gonna be how every episode is?" Maybe... 😏

ur reaction is hilarious😂😂

how did they make us cry over someone we met ~9 minutes ago

Minor suggestion... Episodes 8-10 are best watched in a single session. This isn't universally agreed upon, but I am strongly of this opinion. I would recommend that whenever you reach these episodes that you budget the time so that, should you decide to do such, you can watch all three together.

33:31, CREATURE SPOTTED

you are beautiful and love your reaction, looking forward to another episodes, thank you

Alright, who's doing the obligatory translating the names from German? Also, elves can live for nearly an eternity.

Her: i don't know anything about this series Also her: *put's on an elf ears*

subbed for Frieren!

Oooh and great reaction good job

At least the show is nice enough to ask if you're alright after every episode.

素敵なリアクションでした。ありがとう。

You should probably get several tissue boxes

エルフの耳可愛い😊💕

ヒンメルの、綺麗だ、の台詞は星を見てるフリーレンを見て言ったのでは、と思ってる

Apperently food in anime looks so good because of the Delicious in Dungeon manga, as that was so successful that everything copied it a bit. It's also an anime that just came out.

Her heart on 14 ep can do it?😂😂

I'm a disaster 😭

マルシルではなくフリーレンですよね

Himmel is dead,it’s too late

Where can I find it?

ure an elf??

I need to find someone like you to watch anime with lol You single? We about the same age lol

ю чикен!

You look like you eat dungeon food hehe

おい、おい！耳が？趣味が遭わんわ

You are a fun of Kleenex then I m happy.
